Miami is not really a baseball city so it would not be missed a whole lot.<br />
Then, the city could turn Marlins Stadium into a football stadium and call it the New Orange Bowl. Then the UM would be back to its roots, high school games could be played once again and the city could hold concerts and events to generate revenue that this Marlins team could not. <br />
But all that is wishful thinking.</p>Once a shyster,Always a shyster commented on 'Selig: Marlins trade "under review"'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2017ee52e15bb970d2012-11-15T23:15:27Z2012-11-15T23:15:39ZOnce a shyster,Always a shysterhttp://miamiherald.comBefore Selig got involved in baseball,he made his living as a car dealer.

After he got his new stadium in Milwaukee, he had promised to spend more money on payroll. Instead he lowered the payroll. And sold team at a huge profit. This is exactly why, the public should NEVER pay for owners new play sites. The old 1% strike again with the worst kind of welefare there is.</p>Slap Johnson commented on 'Selig: Marlins trade "under review"'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2017c338a71ad970b2012-11-15T22:57:42Z2012-11-15T22:57:53ZSlap JohnsonI still say "Let's see who he brings in.

I have to say that all the Dade County politicians who were in on this deal and profited from taxpayer dollars should be called out and held responsible also. I always wanted Loria to build his stadium in Broward knowing that the Dades would never show up.

There was little doubt the Red Sox made that trade with the intention to help the team win games in the long run. Much more doubt in this situation. So even though on paper the trade may look similar, when judging whether each of the two trades is in the best interests of baseball you would consider all relevant circumstances, not just the deal on paper. Red Sox ownership is nothing like Marlins ownership. </p>rje commented on 'Selig: Marlins trade "under review"'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2017d3db71e6c970c2012-11-15T20:03:23Z2012-11-15T20:03:29Zrje50/50.
